Contemptible

Former Trump adviser Steve Bannon indicted by federal grand jury for contempt of Congress [More]

The committee vote to refer it to the full House was unanimous, 9-0.

Seven Democrats and Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, so nine Democrats.

I don't have time right now to compare the Republicans who voted to send it to the grand jury with the ones who rolled on infrastructure, but I'm betting there will be matches.

Contempt of Congress, eh? Say, what ever happened to Eric Holder...?

Contempt of congress (lower case)... is that like a merit badge? Everyone I know has contempt for congress.

Hell, what I've seen seems to indicate that the congress critters have plenty of contempt for each other. If they're in the mix every day, and feel that at least some of the parts are worthy of contempt, how does that contemptability not stain the whole?

Princess Nancy certainly showed contempt for POTUS 45. Why is that not a crime yet contempt for the institution she is running into the ground is?
